  • 4,000+ Flickr Photos

    Last year, there were 2,000 photos in my Flickr photostream. And few days ago, I just noticed that I’ve been uploading another 2,000+ photos. So far, I’m satisfied with Flickr service — at least, I never experienced bad service. I bought a new camera few months ago (Canon EOS 450D), and I took more photos…

  • Flickr's New Photos Notification

    I don’t know when Flickr rolled out this changes, but I see now that notification email subject about new photos from my Flickr contact is more useful now. Previously, when my contacts uploaded photos to their Flickr photostream, I get notification with subject like this: [Flickr] New items from friends. Now email subject is something…

  • Indonesian Batik as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity

    In 2009, Indonesian batik is inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization). Type of batik reinforced as World Heritage is a type of “batik tulis” (hand-written batik) and not “batik cap” (printed batik). See more photos about batik from my photoblog.

  • Jogtug Celebrated 64th Anniversary of Indonesia's Independence

    Few days ago, I joined @jogtug (Jogjakarta Twitter User Group) to celebrate 64th anniversary of Indonesia’s independence day. The community gathered in an event called #pitulasanTU (the word ‘pitulas‘ means “seventeen” in English). Why seventeen? Because Indonesia celebrates its independence day on Agustus 17. #pitulasanTU took place at Gedung Agung, Malioboro, Yogyakarta. The idea was…

  • Wibiya Toolbar for your website

    Few days ago, I installed a toolbar in this site (see footer). It’s a hosted toolbar service from Wibiya. I was not sure whether I really need that or not, but because I got invite to try the service — after asking for invite — I decided to try it. Go display the toolbar, we…

  • Now with more photos. And they're bigger

    When I knew about The Big Pictures, I told myself that I wanted to have one too. A place where I display some photos I took. A dedicated photoblog came into my mind. I know that it’s something I can create, technically.

  • FlickrSync

    Not sure whether this application is right for me or not. It’s called FlickrSync. FlickrSync is a freeware photo synchronization application for flickr users. It displays your local folders and your flickr sets and it can establish synchronization rules between them. This way you can manage all your photos locally and FlickrSync will keep them…

  • White House's The Official Photostream

    When I heard about White House Photostream page from Yan Arief Twitter status, I visited it right away. No waiting. I’m an Indonesian, and I love seeing the topic like this — related to my own country — but, it’s not easy to find. Do we have great pictures of our President, or Istana Negara?…

  • Google Image Search Color Filter

    I think, this Google Image Search‘s “filter by color” feature is very useful. I can filter image search results not only by size (extra large, large, medium, and small) and image type (news content, faces, clip art, line drawing and photos) but also by color. There are twelve colors available to be used as filter.…

  • Frog All Lit Up by Swallowed Christmas Light

    The Daily Dozen feature on National Geographic, edited by photo editor Susan Welchman, is a treasure trove of neat “Your Shots” photos submitted by the magazine’s readers (a selection of which will actually appear on the magazine itself – talk about awesome!).
